Do my guinea pigs need to come in the winter?

[Alfientoby]

I have two long haired guinea pigs who are 4 months old. They live in a large hutch outside. Do they need bringing in the winter.
Thanks

it is always best if you can get them inside or some sort of shed but if thats not possible they can live outside as long as the hutch is kept warm and insulated, there are loads of tips if you look around the site

I would bring them in so you can ensure they are warm and happy.

get a snuggle heatpad hun for when its really cold to keep them nice and snuggly

I keep mine inside to be safe, but people have kept them outside all year successfully. A hutch cover, lots of bedding and a snuggle safe heat pad is advised if they are staying out. xx
